Synima: Synteny Imaging tool

Jit — Sun, 10 Dec 2017 17:03:48 -0600

Synteny Imaging tool (Synima) written in Perl, which uses the graphical features of R. Synima takes orthologues computed from reciprocal best BLAST hits or OrthoMCL, and DAGchainer, and outputs an overview of genome-wide synteny in PDF. Each of these programs are included with the Synima package, and a pipeline for their use. Synima has a range of graphical parameters including size, colours, order, and labels, which are specified in a config file generated by the first run of Synima – and can be subsequently edited. Synima runs quickly on a command line to generate informative and publication quality figures. Synima is open source and freely available from https://github.com/rhysf/Synima under the MIT License.

Multi-CAR: a tool of contig scaffolding using multiple references

Rahul Nayak — Tue, 06 Mar 2018 16:39:41 -0600

we design a simple heuristic method to further revise our single reference-based scaffolding tool CAR into a new one called Multi-CAR such that it can utilize multiple complete genomes of related organisms as references to more accurately order and orient the contigs of a draft genome. In practical usage, our Multi-CAR does not require prior knowledge concerning phylogenetic relationships among the draft and reference genomes and libraries of paired-end reads. To validate Multi-CAR, we have tested it on a real dataset composed of several prokaryotic genomes and also compared its accuracy performance with other multiple reference-based scaffolding tools Ragout and MeDuSa.

HiGlass: a tool for exploring genomic contact matrices and tracks.

Jit — Mon, 11 Jun 2018 09:44:49 -0500

HiGlass is a tool for exploring genomic contact matrices and tracks. Please take a look at the examples and documentation for a description of the ways that it can be configured to explore and compare contact matrices. To load private data, HiGlass can be run locally within a Docker container. The HiC data in the examples below is from Rao et al. (2014) http://higlass.io/

GRSR: a tool for deriving genome rearrangement scenarios from multiple unichromosomal genome sequences

Jit — Fri, 28 Sep 2018 09:35:10 -0500

GRSR is a Tool for Deriving Genome Rearrangement Scenarios for Multiple Uni-chromosomal Genomes. This tool will do the following steps:

Step 1. Run mugsy to get multiple sequence alignment results.
Step 2 & 3. Extraction of the Coordinates of Core Blocks, Construction of Synteny Blocks and Generating Signed Permutations.
Step 4. Generate pairwise genome rearrangement scenarios and find repeats at the breakpoints of each rearrangement events.

ANItools web: a web tool for fast genome comparison within multiple bacterial strains

Jit — Wed, 14 Nov 2018 04:34:23 -0600

ANItools is a software package written by PERL scripts that can be run in a Linux/Unix system. If you want to compare bacterial genomes and calculate their average nucleotide identity (ANI), you could download and run this program directly. Or you could send us the genome sequence by email. Then we will do the analysis work for you.

WEGO : simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results

BioStar — Sun, 12 Apr 2020 10:02:22 -0500

WEGO (Web Gene Ontology Annotation Plot) is a simple but useful tool for visualizing, comparing and plotting GO (Gene Ontology) annotation results. As the GO vocabulary became more and more popular, WEGO was widely adopted and used in many researches. Therefore we have updated WEGO 2.0 in 2018. Here are some changes we’ve made:
1. The limit of input file numbers was cancelled. Now the users could upload as many files as they want with one operation.
2. We have added the reference data of 9 species for users selection.
3. Besides the traditional WEGO histogram, WEGO 2.0 outputs an additional type of bar graph showing GO terms with significant gene number differences.

Sequence Ontology Bioinformatics Analysis (SOBA) tool to provide a simple statistical and graphical summary of an annotated genome

BioStar — Wed, 22 Jul 2020 10:11:13 -0500

We have developed the Sequence Ontology Bioinformatics Analysis (SOBA) tool to provide a simple statistical and graphical summary of an annotated genome. We envisage its use during annotation jamborees, genome comparison and for use by developers for rapid feedback during annotation software development and testing. SOBA also provides annotation consistency feedback to ensure correct use of terminology within annotations, and guides users to add new terms to the Sequence Ontology when required. SOBA is available at http://www.sequenceontology.org/cgi-bin/soba.cgi.

vsFilt: A tool to improve virtual screening by structural filtration of docking poses

Neel — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 02:39:16 -0600

The vsFilt is the first open application for post-docking structural filtration, available as a web-server. The new tool is easy to use and configure to detect a wide range of interaction types that are known to be involved in molecular recognition, including hydrogen and halogen bonds, ionic interactions, hydrophobic contacts, π-stacking, and cation-π interactions. The web-server can process large libraries of up to 150’000 docked ligand poses. The results are web-based and can be operated on-line using the built-in HTML5 interactive analysis tools, or can be downloaded for a local use. The vsFilt is freely available on-line, no login required.
